Malaga, Spain - Spanish police have seized 81 works attributed to surrealist artist Salvador Dali (1904-89), some of which may have been stolen while others are fake, police said Thursday.
The works were confiscated at a hotel in the southern town of Estepona where they were exhibited for sale. Police arrested the French organizer of the exhibition.
The works included lithographies, textiles, bas-reliefs, cutlery and sculptures, including a three-metre elephant statue which was on sale for 1.2 million euros (1.6 million dollars).
